My daily skin care




GARNIER Soft Essentials Face Wash - Every morning I wash my face with this and it leave my skin feeling soft and clean. I wash my face outwards at it should be done. There is a lot of different types of face washes from Garnier but because I have dry skin, I got the pink one (Rose Extract).

And before I go to bed in the night, I make sure I wash my face with this to get rid of all the bacteria my face collected through out the day and it also helps me take off my make-up when I have some on.



BODYSHOP Seaweed pore-cleansing exfoliator - I always have used this exfoliator after I finished using the Garnier face wash, and it made my skin really smooth at times, but when its used too much it made my skin really dry and it made my skin peel off. I hated it, so I only exfoliated my face about 2 - 3 times a week. I think its unhealthy to exfoliate the skin too much because the skin will become thinner and thinner and that can become irritated, itchy and painful.




BODYSHOP Tea tree blackhead exfoliating wash - Because I have misplaced my seaweed exfoliator, I couldnt afford another one yet so I started using my sister's old exfoliator from bodyshop and it is actully working alright. Its more suited with my skin, its just as strong as the seaweed one that made my skin dry. This one focused more on the blackheads, but it also exfoliates so its really just the best of two. I only use this once 3 times a week.








PONDS hydronourishing - I always apply this after I wash my face/exfoliate my face. I have always been using ponds as a mosturizer and I really want to change to a different mosturizer with a high SPF in it so my skin will be protected from sun damage. I usually focus arounf my T-zone as they are the driest part on my face. I also apply this most of the time before I sleep, but sometimes I just leave  my skin fresh when sleeping.





BODYSHOP Vitamin C Reviver - This is actually my first jar of the product and so far so good. At first I really didn't like the product as my skin was having a bad reaction to it, but my skin got better and it got used to the product. As my skin is usually like that when trying out new products I just kept it going and gave it another try, but really, if your skin is reacting very bad to a product you shouldn't really force it and still keep using it because it will get worst. I was fine with mine because my reaction only lasted for 1-4 days and I think its that time of the month so I had breakouts. But when I use it now, Its great and I love the fresh smell. I apply it after applying my ponds mosturizer and its a perfect base for make-up application. It made my skin look glowy and natural, and that's why I LOVE THIS!
